It really is pathethic that they have so many issues getting these things into peoples inboxes.  I'm serious - why pay a company to do something that they seemingly can't accomplish.  This has been a common topic of discussion on this board for years, can't believe it has not been tco after all this time.

I signed up again on this new site and it worked. I got the blast last night. Get gmail, yo.

Another week goes by with no Blast for me.

Maybe it's time to switch mass-mail companies? Vertical Response have been fuckin up royally.

I guess I could invite myself to gmail and make a new account.

My very unscientific analysis is that the system emailing out the weekly blast is possibly very sensitive to email that bounce to it... i for several months stopped receiving it via one my own mail servers which started about the time i had problems getting mail there.... it suddenly starting arriving again with no rhyme or reason after I had signed up with a gmail account.  wonder if the company gets blacked listed on occasion because it's seen as a spammer...

Is there any chance there can be a sticky thread made where the blasts are posted?

I've got 3 different email addresses, all signed up for the blast at various points over the past several  years.  None of them have gotten blasted in a few months.  All have been re-registered.

Seems others have this problem as well.

i have two gmail accounts, the missus has a third, and we get our blasts like clockwork on wednesdays.  so the system is working, for some people at least.

what i haven't seen recently is Volume, the print newsletter.  when was the last one mailed out?

It's sounding more and more like Yahoo and other companies are blocking the E-Mails before they can get to the recipients.

What's funny is that my employer seems to block everything under the sun that comes my way, be it emails or websites, but I always manage to get the blast.

I have never had a problem with my MSN account in the numerous years that the email blast has been coming out.  Of course, I did add 930_Club@mail.vresp.com to my friendly senders list a while ago...

We use vertical response here at work, but I'm not in charge of it.  I'll go talk to them.

My MSN account was good up until the end of November.  Yahoo accounts stopped getting blasted long ago.  The address that the blasts come from are on the protected lists for all accounts, I'm not sure what the deal is.
